Chapter 65
Waving in the military camp, he didn't see Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. He wanted to ask someone for a while and happened to see Liu Ge passing by.
"Two military marquises are comforting the war horses on the horse circle... It is said that today, three horses will be put on horseshoes." Liu Ge replied immediately after hearing this. He felt a little envious. Whether it is Zi Hualiu, Xuewuzhu, or even chasing the wind, they are all good horses.
However, he was not as good as him and Shangguan Yu, and he felt a little envious.
"Work hard, and you may not have a chance to get a good horse in the future! Besides, the horses that you transport are already the best quality among war horses." Liu Ge and Shangguan Yu are also considered relatives or in-laws of other clans, and Liu Tao is still very caring for them.
When we arrived at the horse circle, the three horses had already put on horseshoes and the saddles had also been replaced. The three horses seemed to be a little uncomfortable with the things on their feet, a little irritable. Even if they were said to be the best temper, they were a little restless.
"Brother is here just in time. Zhuifeng needs you to comfort him." Zhang Fei shouted at Liu Tao when he saw Liu Tao. It was nothing if he came forward to comfort him, but the problem was not his horse.
On the battlefield, especially the cavalry, the horses under their seats are actually the horses under their seats. Those who are good at riding will say so: "If you get closer to the horses, the horses will think more about you."
There is also legend that when Huo Qubing, the former general of the cavalry, had a war horse with him, if he met a fighting general, he would take the initiative to kick and bite the enemy's war horses and create a fighter opportunity for Huo Qubing.
In Liu Tao's view, it should be the result of artistic processing, but in memory, there are some rumors that horses not only do not eat vegetarian food, but instead eat meat. In memory, it seems that Lu Bu's red rabbit and Zhaoye Jade Lion in "Water Margin" are like this.
In my memory, I also checked why the Red Rabbit was called this name. I realized that it was originally called Chitu. It was translated as a red tiger. At that time, Liu Tao thought: This is the only one! How could such a fierce horse be called the name "Chitu"?
I just don’t know how inferior this Zi Hualiu is to the Chitu… Liu Tao sighed in his heart, and then came to Zhuifeng. He has always been good at riding, and is quite good at comforting horses. There is no big problem. The key is that Zhuifeng’s character is gentle.
After turning on the horse, I walked a short distance, and Zhuifeng began to slowly adapt to the existence of the horseshoe. I also had to adapt to the feeling of running in the horseshoe, which was no less than learning to run again.
"Zhu Feng is worthy of being a docile horse!" Guan Yu sighed, but it was just so simple to calm it down. However, he and Zhang Fei had to continue to comfort their horses.
"I won't talk about it. You must have to go a few laps later..." Liu Tao reminded.
"This is for sure." It was not the first time the two of them came into contact with this, so they naturally understood.
Zang Min has been paying attention to this uninvited guest, at least in his opinion. He has sent someone to find out the details. He actually formed a spontaneous militia, but later he was appointed by Liu Yan to become a regular army and sent south at the same time.
Or in other words, Liu Tao took the initiative to ask for a trip south because he agreed to escort Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang back. Liu Tao's behavior of keeping trust was also praised and recognized by Zang Min.
For Liu Yan, the matter of going south was beneficial but not harmful. After all, the soldiers did not need to pay the food and salary. Liu Tao was the one who lost the battle. He also made contributions to winning the battle. Why didn’t he support it?
Liu Tao also has the advantage, that is, he can go south openly to support him in the name of orthodox. At the same time, with the identity of Sima of other departments, he can avoid being troubled by local governments.
"No problem, as long as there is no problem..." Zang Min was actually relieved. He did not consider Liu Taojun's record, as long as there was no problem, "Set up a banquet and send someone to invite Liu Tao and his three brothers to the banquet!"
"Prince, there are not many supplies in the city. If it is a banquet..." The county magistrate stepped forward to persuade him. Now is not a time to waste it.
"To be simple, the banquet is that Lu Nu is not in sufficient supplies, so he should be able to understand. Besides, we have to guard Lu Nu County, so it is difficult to go out easily. We want to restore Zhongshan County. We still need their help in this matter." Zang Min shook his head and said earnestly.
"The emperor understands!" The county magistrate received the order and immediately sent someone to arrange the matter.
"No matter what your plans are, you will earn military merits, and I will still make contributions to defending the territory. I just think that they are all taking the needs." Zang Min looked at a military camp in the city and murmured in a low voice.
Liu Tao's army gave him a very abnormal feeling. In Zhuo County, he cooperated with Zou Jing, and 5,000 people broke 20,000 thieves. He came to Zhongshan County and defeated 3,000 elite bandits in Puyin County. At the same time, he saw through the ambush in Wangdu County and defeated 2,000 ambush soldiers. As a result, the two thousand people increased instead of reducing...
Yes, some Yellow Turban thieves were incorporated, but since they were recruited by local residents, Zang Min should not see them. The main reason is that these people were still safe and did not make any abnormal moves during this day.
But he didn't know that when he was far away in Chen State of Yuzhou, King Liu Chong of Chen saw the county soldiers fleeing everywhere, and spontaneously recruited troops to guard Chen State. Until now, he has 100,000 troops under his command. Liu Tao is not as good as Liu Chong in terms of his background or military size.
"Go to the banquet?" Liu Tao was working hard. This is what he has been doing. The body is the capital to achieve success. Not to mention having time, even if you don't have time, you have to find a way to take some time to keep exercising.
"The prefect sent someone to come and said that the banquet was held tonight, hoping to entertain the four commanders." The personal soldiers nodded and replied. The prefect sent someone to come just now, and that was what he said.
"Canshan, what do you think the prefect invites us at this time?" Liu Tao looked at Lu Yan not far away.
"Reward the army...it shouldn't be..." Lu Yan thought for a while, "Maybe it's because he is close or has something to ask for us?"
"Will he, the prefect, ask for our miscellaneous army?" Liu Tao said mockingly.
"Can the army that defeats two cities in a row be considered a miscellaneous army?" Lu Yan retorted, "Who asked, Yan thought he wanted us to help recover the other counties, right?"
"This is possible, but he doesn't know that we can capture two cities. Puyin County was destroyed by us because of the defenders in the field. Wangdu County used the empty city plan to lure us, but did not want to be attacked by us. We have never done a real attack on the city." Liu Tao shook his head.
One thousand soldiers attacked the city, which did not meet the basic requirements for siege. Even if you barely defeated, you wouldn't know how many soldiers would be consumed. At that time, you might not be able to drain his magic value.
"Since he has already had a banquet, he has to give him some face to attend, otherwise it would be too rude." Lu Yan didn't know that the banquet had not started yet, so it would be unreasonable not to attend the banquet.
"Then there is nothing I can do..." Liu Tao shrugged. This action seemed inexplicable to Lu Yan, but based on Liu Tao's tone and expression, it should be a helpless meaning.
Speaking of the situation, another recruit came to report: "General, Zhen sent someone to come and said that he would hold a banquet in the mansion tonight, entertain the general, and meet the elders and daughters of the Zhen family."
"Oh..." Liu Tao was a little embarrassed when he heard this, "The two banquets collided together..."
